Aquafilta to feature unique portable filtration system for deployed troops at Future Land Forces 2011

Singapore, April 20, 2011 – At the inaugural Future Land Forces 2011 conference and exhibition to be held at Singapore EXPO, in Singapore on 27, 28 and 29 June 2011, Gold Sponsor Aquafilta will be demonstrating its latest line of water filtration equipment for soldiers in the field. The equipment has undergone rigorous testing and certification from the World Health Organisation (WHO), American Public Health Association (APHA) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The UFilta membrane product have been analysed and approved in Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India, Australia, Singapore, South Korea, Cambodia and the Philippines.

According to Amo Mostofi, General Manager, Defence & Security at Clarion Events “Soldiers in the field will find this equipment of immense value when they are forward deployed in isolated and hostile environments that require lightweight and sustainable delivery of water. We are proud to welcome Aquafilta, as one of our sponsors who provide this capability for regional armies.”

The UFilta is only one of the many topics that will be discussed in regards to land force modernisation and the acquisition of gear for the Asian defence market. The event will cover all aspects of army modernisation in the region, encompassing infantry, armour, artillery, unmanned system technologies and equipment for soldiers.
